A New Top in Four Seasons

Yesterday, I got a lovely surprise in the post. The team at Room31 Fashion (use SGS25 for 25% off your next order) sent me this gorgeous Vero Moda top! So I just had to wear it today...

Here's the top up close - the grape and vine pattern is coral/pink/dark grey on a cream base and there's a cute pleat detail on the neckline and over the shoulders. You can find it here on the website. I started the day with a cream cropped cardigan over as it was nice out but a bit nippy...

As I was about to go on the school run, the skies opened and I had to get the boots on and swap my cardigan for a grey wool jacket (last seen here)...

When I got home, I grabbed my cosy long grey cardigan to warm me up...

But as the evening went on, the sun came out and it warmed up a bit so I ditched the boots & cardigan and put on my Fly wedges...could summer be round the corner? <hopeful>

Now any top that can take me through so many weather changes is a keeper - I know I'm going to get lots of wear from it. Make sure you have a little browse on the Room31 site - it has a lovely mix of unique pieces and you'll be supporting a great small business run by one of the hardest working girls I've come across in a long time...and I'm not just saying. I've been a fan for a while now and my postman has delivered more than a few pink bags :) Jeans throughout are Boden Bootcuts in dark indigo. The Fly Pecam wedges are the same as these ones from Amazon, though mine are a stone coloured canvas with leather. They add about 3 inches to my height and they are unbelievably comfortable. Fingers crossed for a sunny weekend - catch you all tomorrow!

HiI have found you via various blogs talking about the vile comments on Daily Mail, just dropping by to say something nice and give some support. I am hopeless at keeping up my posts and always feel like a bit of a voyeur, or a single man at a wife swapping party, who reads everyone else's but gives nothing of themselves! Will definitely post tomorrow! Great top and the cut of the jeans are perfect on you!

I love reading your comments and will reply as soon as I can if you have a specific question. If for any reason, you are unable to leave a comment, just drop me an email at avril@alifetostyle.com or leave a comment on the A Life to Style Facebook Page! Thank you xx
